Maricopa is a community just south of Phoenix, AZ partially surrounded by raw desert and American Indian tribal land where wild horses still roam free and John Wayne worked his sprawling Red River Ranch and Cattle Company in bygone days. My husband photographed this horse sculpture near our subdivision’s entrance.

JustRite Friday Challenge #107: Easel Cards

Card Open w/all 3 Layers

Easel cards are the theme this week @ JustRite's Friday Challenge -- something I've only done once or twice before, but they're a really fun way to create a card that's a bit more unique! I decided to make it a real 'challenge' and create a triple-easel Valentine's card basically following this video.

For my card I've used various Spellbinders' heart-shaped dies (Nested Hearts; Lace Hearts) and Labels One to create my Valentine's Day card using
gold CS and red/gold sparkly DP as well as JustRite's Winter Words, Ooh
La La French Fills and JR Grand Sentiments for my three sentiments. With
the above-mentioned video, I think what I did is self-evident, except
to say that I added Viva Inka Gold Metallic Rub to my largest heart, the
key from the Lace Hearts die cut in Spellbinders Red Foil and several red gems.

What a FUN challenge and although it took a bit longer than I'd hoped to finish, I LOVE the result!

Very Cool Marge! I've never tried a triple easel, normally I just do a twisted one, but this is really beautiful and very intriguing. I was waiting to see what masterpiece you'd sneak in under the wire and this is very much worth seeing!
